RuvB-like 2 (E. coli) also known as RUVBL2 is a human gene coding for a protein belonging to the AAA+ family of proteins.This gene encodes the second human homologue of the bacterial RuvB gene. Bacterial RuvB protein is a DNA helicase essential for homologous recombination and DNA double-strand break repair. However the evidence for whether RUVBL2 has DNA helicase activity is contradictory.
